Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

council-reference scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 9d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

Scoring Thresholds

Score  Meaning
─────  ───────────────────────────────────────────────────────
  0    False positive. Doesn't hold up to scrutiny.
 25    Might be real, but unverified. Could be false positive.
 50    Real but minor. Unlikely to occur in practice.
 75    Verified real. Will impact functionality. Important.
100    Confirmed. Frequent in practice. Evidence conclusive.
─────  ───────────────────────────────────────────────────────

Filter threshold: Only findings scoring >= 80 appear in the final report.

False Positive Taxonomy

Score 0 (auto-reject) if a finding matches any of these:

  • Pre-existing issue not introduced in the current changes
  • Problem that a linter, typechecker, or compiler would catch
  • Pedantic nitpick that a senior engineer would not call out
  • General code quality complaint NOT backed by project CLAUDE.md
  • Issue on lines that were NOT modified in the changes under review
  • Intentional functionality change clearly related to the broader change
  • Code with explicit lint-ignore or suppress comments

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
